Why Supplements?
A balanced diet should be the primary source of vitamins and minerals, as good nutrition is the basis for great health.
Unfortunately, the world isn’t the same as it was 50 years ago. Various factors affect our health, like an increase in artificial chemicals & additives in food, a decrease in minerals in soil, which means less of the key nutrients in food and an increase in pollutants & toxins in air and water. Organic food and clean water are not enough.
When children develop, their systems are vulnerable. Supplementing their diet with high-quality vitamins and supplements will support their growing bodies with the nutrients they need to protect themselves from the harmful environment they are exposed to.
Childlife Essentials supplements provide essential vitamins, minerals and Omega-3 fatty acids to support proper growth and development.
When should my children start taking supplements?
Our supplements and vitamins are suitable from birth till late teenage years. Please check each product with its specific dosage information on it.
Do your supplements taste good for kids to take them?
Childlife Essentials supplements and vitamins were developed with kids’ taste buds in mind. They are naturally sweet, and many parents report that their kids love taking their “delicious treat” or “yummy medicine” daily. Our supplements are delivered mostly in liquid form, which makes it easy for kids to take or parents to “hide” in shakes or meals.
Are your supplements suitable for children with allergies?
Yes, they are perfect for children with allergies. Our supplements are allergy-free, gluten-free, alcohol-free and GMO-free. They also do not have fillers, milk, eggs, fish (except Cod Liver Oil), peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, corn, casein or yeast. There are no artificial colours, sweeteners, flavours or fillers used, just clean, good-tasting vitamins and minerals.
Are your supplements natural?
Yes, our range is not laboratory-derived but derived from natural sources. The products are made from the cleanest and purest natural ingredients sourced explicitly for their highest quality. The products are then independently tested for pesticides and metals such as mercury, PCBs and dioxins.
Are your supplements gluten-free?
Yes, all ChildLife Essentials products are gluten-free.
Are your supplements vegan?
It depends on the specific vegan belief system you have, as some vegans allow certain products (like honey) in their diet, and others don’t. Some of our vegan customers choose to provide their children with some of our products that are not true vegan by definition (Calcium, Multi-vitamin, & Mineral) as they understand the benefits.
Please note that vitamin D3 includes cholecalciferol (lanolin from sheep), our Cod Liver Oil and DHA contain fish oil, and our Formula 3 Cough Syrup has a small amount of Buckwheat honey.
These supplements are fully vegan: Vitamin C, Vitamin K2, Toothpaste Tabs, Echinacea, Gripe Water, First Defense, and Aller-Care.
Can adults use your supplements and vitamins?
Yes, adults can benefit from using ChildLife Essentials products as well. Just double the dose for adults.
How long can I keep the product in the refrigerator after opening?
All ChildLife products, including organic, can be consumed within 6 months after opening when kept refrigerated, except ChildLife Organic Gripe Water should be consumed within 6 weeks after opening. If not refrigerated, all products should be consumed within 90 days after opening.
